    Nobody wants it. That fight was an embarrassment for Canela

      The only reason you may want this fight is if you actually get a percentage of their money.

      Canelo showed against Lara and no CW that he still has trouble with boxers/movers. Canelo fights too flat-footed. He does much better against a come forward fighter who has an average work-rate.

      Canelo is still young and maybe with more experience he can get better ...... but it's hard to change your style when you just don't have all the natural abilities to do so .....

        I dont... Floyd schooled him so bad it was a bit sad to see. Hell, even Maidana did better...

          Canelo fan, no. I don't want to see it and I don't think he could do (much) better unless Floyd is really shot. Not his style of fight, speed kills. And when it doesn't kill, reflexes kill, and when that doesn't kill, skills kill. Floyds style is all wrong for the boxer puncher (and slower Canelo.)

          IF Canelo showed this drastically new different style of bull rushing fighters and trapping them and pounding them then I would say YES, let's rematch. That's what I anticipated him doing the first time... I thought he was aware that was his ONLY chance. But no, the naive kid thought he was the better boxer and paid the hard way.

          He did however appear to learn a little something in that fight the way he invested in the body work when Lara started moving alot ("running") so in the long run, it was worth the schooling Floyd gave him.

            The question is, would Floyd fight Canelo at 155 or even at Middleweight?
            everybody knows the answer

              Anything Canelo can do better in a rematch?
              assuming Floyd beats Manny and Cotto this year, I'd expect 2016 to be him and canelo 2, unless GGG gets it.

                As much as I like Canelo, I don't want to see a second fight. If Canelo does fight Floyd, then I hope he attacks more and doesn't try to outbox the best defensive boxing this era.

                  Heck no Canelo looked like absolute shyt and basically quit after round 3 vs Floyd, resorting to fouling to buy time........Floyd said he manufactured the Canelo hype train and built him on his undercards and he beat on him as such............

                  Judging off performances I'm not even sure Canelo beats Chino........................Thats the fight I want to see

                      Nobody wants to think about the possibility of this fight taking place right now. Canelo needs to focus on beating more name fighters to solidify his presence.
